15 Unique Things to Do & Hidden Gems in Phoenix to Explore

We had the most amazing experience at this Scottsdale home. I’m sorry we didn’t take pics of the house or the backyard but the accommodations were fantastic. The house itself is spacious and impeccably kept. The bedrooms are so comfortable with excellent mattresses and clean linen that did not look old or used. There was an abundance of towels, in all sizes, which was very helpful. We loved that every light switch was clearly labeled so you didn’t need to keep turning lights on and off to see which fixture it belonged to. The open floor plan was beautiful- we are a family of 8 on winter break and the setup allowed for ppl to be in the kitchen and the den with lots of room to walk around and still be able to spend time together. The sliding doors in the kitchen area allowed for the doors to either be semi or completely open which really opened up the space even more. The backyard was magnificent!! The pickleball/tennis/basketball court is well kept and well lit for night play as well. The outdoor kitchen and built in bbq had plenty of seating and offered a warm, cozy, inclusive vibe. The pool and hot tub are gorgeous and clean. The double washers and dryers were a game changer- have to add this to my own house now! We cannot rate this house high enough. The communication was always clear and immediate- we always felt there was someone to speak to if we needed anything. When our flight was cancelled at the last minute they were very accommodating in extending our stay day by day as necessary. Forget hotels- this is your private resort with all amenities. We can’t wait to go back!!

We visited with a large group of friends and family, and the compound exceeded all expectations. The bunk house, in particular, was an absolute hit with the children. Everything was perfectly clean, and the compound was impeccably appointed. All bed were comfortable, and there was room for everyone to spread out and do whatever they wanted. We are a finicky group and everybody was still impressed.

Fantastic location with an amazing, completely private yard. The wonderful pool and hot tub were a big hit with the kids and the proximity to several different hiking options topped it off. What’s great holiday location!

My family rented Catcus Crown from Stay with Style Scottsdale (SWSS) over Christmas week 2025. I've rented houses all over the US and Caribbean and I can say without hesitation that SWSS is excellent at managing and delivering a rental home. The home was very clean, had plenty of linens, towels, and was in great shape. There were so many plates, bowls, silverware, pots and pans. We had 15 adults and 4 kids and we never ran out of cups or plates. This home in particular was very new and had top of the line appliances including a big subzero fridge, new wolf ovens, and 2 big washer and dryers to use should you need them. There are 7 bedrooms and 7 full baths. There is ample seating for big family gatherings. The outdoor space was amazing including an eating area, and a tv area. There is an outdoor grill, hot tub, and a gigantic heated pool. There is also a pickle ball court and a big wood fire pit. We absolutely loved this home and are already planning a return trip. I also want to emphasize that the staff at SWSS is excellent. Darlene, Jorge, and the maintenance crew quickly dealt with all of the very small issues we ran into. Darlene is incredibly friendly and responsive and so very easy to work with. Jorge was always available by text and quickly resolved any of our concerns. If the Catcus Crown home is not available, I have no issues working with Darlene and SWSS to find another home they manage. They really are the best company I've dealt with in over 13 years of renting homes. thanks Darlene and the entire SWSS staff.

A perfect place to stay with our high school basketball team. So much to do to keep them all entertained.

This is our second time staying at the Place. 1 year later and it is still as meticulously maintained. Most vacation rental properties don't look like their pictures, this one does. This is a must stay.

Great place for our family of 11. We loved the backyard with large clean pool and the racquetball court was so much fun.

Wonderful stay! The house is beautiful and the service that Stay With Style Scottsdale provides is top notch (thanks again Darlene)! Will definitely stay again.

This property was over and above my expectations. Every photo and description was spot on. The hosts were amazing and quick to respond too. We will be staying again and again.

Perfect location for our pilates/pool retreat. Bedrooms were spectacular. Everyone loved having their own room. Large, well stocked kitchen was roomy enough for all 10 of us to gather and cook. Outdoor spaces were well planned and pool was gorgeous. Great area for private parking. Ideal location for easy access to shops, restaurants and airport.

Loved the house and all the amenities. Came for my daughter’s wedding and we had family in from London, Chicago and LA. We were able to stay together which was amazing. Darlene was very helpful and informative at booking answering all our questions. Would definitely book with Stay in style Scottsdale again!! Very good experience! Angela

Everything was just as described and wonderful. Thank you!!!

Our stay at Casa Consola was nothing short of amazing! We were blown away by how beautiful the house was with every detail from the wonderful decor, the fully equipped kitchen, the bedrooms, the casita, and all the amenities! The outdoor space was incredible - the pool area was private with plenty of seating and the peaceful surroundings. Stay With Styles Scottsdale (the hosts) were exceptional. Very friendly, welcoming, helpful, always responsive if we needed anything, and they made our trip all that more enjoyable! We didn't want to leave and we are already planning our next visit to Casa Consola. It was the perfect choice for our family vacation!

Had seven guys on an annual golf trip. Great place to stay. Very clean and spacious. Great people to work with. As the pictures show, lots of activities in the backyard. My only regret is that we didn’t use their on-site rental cars available. Renting cars from the Phoenix airport is not very convenient. Probably best to use their cars and Uber to and from the airport. Only a $30-$40 charge for the Uber each way. Will definitely book again if we’re back in the area

I would like to share is how fantastic to stay with style Scottsdale team, and Darlene are! This team was a complete joy to work with every step of the way. They were kind they were curious, and they were wonderful communicators. The house was completely immaculate. We enjoyed every aspect of the house. The styling was fantastic. My family thoroughly enjoyed this property. We spent most of our time here. The value is definitely there for the money. Do yourself a favor and book with them today.!

The property we stayed at was just perfect for the 11 of us. We were there to celebrate family and love and being together in the absence of our beloved husband, father grandfather. as we celebrated what would’ve been our 40th wedding anniversary on Sunday the 28th. It was the type of property that you really didn’t have to leave. Just stay there and enjoy what was offered. And the management team for the property was delightful to work with. They were very responsive at every turn and very communicative, which I truly appreciated. Thanks, Darlene and the whole team. We will be back.

Stay with Scottsdale style is one of the best places I have ever rented through. We had a fabulous family vacation at their beautiful property in Scottsdale. Everyone was so cordial and offered tremendous help! I would never hesitate to rent with them again. Thank you so much for our beautiful stay!!!

The houses are beautiful. My cousins and I got together for a family reunion. The young ones loved the pool and playground. The adults enjoyed the pool and hot tub. There is a living room for the kids and 1 for the adults. The main house has 2 refrigerators, plenty of room to cook. Best of all it was nice for all the families to stay in 1 place. My family was very impressed by the accommodations.

We had a great time here! Everything from the communication beforehand to the actual stay was great!! We hope to come back to Scottsdale and stay again sometime :)

We thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful house. It exceeded our expectations and was even more beautiful than the photos. The house was spacious and fully equipped. We played basketball and picketball, and there was a full fitness center and ping-pong table. We also hiked several times within walking distance, enjoying stunning views. Definitely want to come back!

The house was beautiful with many amenities and the location was close to everything. The house was immaculately clean. Darlene was quick to respond when I had questions. I also got a courtesy call at check-in. The whole family enjoyed playing pool, pac-man and foosball. Thanks for a great stay.

The single most professional Airbnb service I’ve ever received. Nothing has ever come close to the quality and flexibility of their team. Fast responses, common sense compromises and mutual respect made this the best Airbnb I’ve ever been to. Will definitely be using their services again!

Our stay was absolutely amazing! Darlene was fantastic and kept in communication with us every step of the way, which made everything smooth and stress-free. The house had everything we needed, and everyone in our group really enjoyed all the amenities. On our first night, a lightning storm rolled through, but the property manager came by right away to make sure everything was okay, which gave us such peace of mind. If you’re planning a trip to Arizona with a big group, this is definitely the place to stay.

We had a fantastic stay with Stay With Style Scottsdale! Darlene was incredibly responsive and kind from booking through checkout. The home was spotless, beautifully furnished, and stocked with everything we needed. Great location, quiet neighborhood, and the backyard was perfect for relaxing. We’d absolutely stay again—thanks, Darlene!

Wonderful and relaxing home to share with friends. Plenty of space and nice layout of bedrooms and gathering spaces. Checkin/out was smooth and communication was timely with the host. Great location to restaurants and shopping too.

The house was beautiful and the backyard STUNNING. We had a great time there. The staff at Stay With Style Scottsdale was really attentive and cooperative both before our arrival and during our stay and their service was amazing. Highly recommend them. Five stars for everything

This was an amazing house. Incredibly clean, organized and spacious. My family had a great time here and we never even left the property. Darlene and her team were easy to communicate with prior to and during our stay. She was so kind to give me a call the days leading up to our arrival to make sure the house was set up to accommodate our group along with providing activity recommendations in the area. Obviously the property is huge but I was shocked to see how much additional closet space there was. I will definitely be rebooking this property in the future.

Amazing experience with this company start to finish! Highly recommend!!

The house was more than I could have imagined. Everything was exactly as pictured and described but still exceeded my expectations.

Scottsdale 2025 family vacation. The home interior was spotless and well maintained, had 2 of every appliance. The beds where very comfortable and temperature in home was very cool and pleasant considering 113 degrees outside. All amenities listed on rental property page were exactly as advertised, the pool and hot tub was very clean and enjoyed them everyday of stay. Outside lighting made the ambiance of the backyard feel like an adult playground. The Stay with Style Scottsdale hospitality services catering dinners, golf outings and purchasing groceries before we arrived made this trip very relaxing and less stressful. Definitely recommend this property and management service.

Management was wonderful to work with. Exceptionally clean and property well equipped. Pool, ping pong table, pool table, mini golf etc were loved by guests. Highly recommend for an amazing and unforgetable getaway! Would book again!

From start to finish our whole experience at this property was top notch, the best I've ever had with a house rental. They reached out multiple times to make sure the house would be set up how we wanted. Their in-house concierge offered us a million options for services, (from home massages, to private chef, yoga instructors that came to the house, etc) and they answered all our questions very promptly during the stay. It was incredible and I'd 100% stay here again!

Company stayed in touch during the booking process, leading up to our stay, and during our stay, which was incredibly helpful. Property was in good shape and properly stocked. Any issues were resolved quickly.

Fantastic stay! Our family (19 of us) loved this house and used every inch of it! Would definitely recommend this place!

The house in photos doesn’t do this place justice. Darlene was very responsive. The place was very clean and well maintained! Would definitely rent this house again!

Absolutely fantastic experience. The property was clean and exactly as described. Darlene was incredibly responsive and thoughtful, making sure every detail was perfect and that our group had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend!

The place (The Luxe) was fantastic!! We had 4 families stay for 5 nights. We loved the house and all the outdoor games. The house was well stocked with everything you need and very clean. We all wished we stayed longer. In addition, Darlene was wonderful to work with and we'd definitely come back. Thank you for helping to make are vacation so enjoyable!!

Darlene is probably the nicest person I've ever talked to in my life. Crazy responsiveness and customer service. Top notch!

A large group of us just stayed at one of the Style Scottsdale properties for our yearly golf trip. The customer service was a 10/10 and the home was beautiful. I look forward to using their service again in the near future.

Darlene and her team were professional, helpful and all over it. Strongly recommend using them on your stay for a large group.

We had such a great stay at this Scottsdale VRBO! What really stood out to me, as someone with allergies, was the kitchen. It had absolutely everything I needed to cook for myself and my family – all the right pots, pans, and utensils. We even put the coffee maker, blender, and toaster to good use! The abundance of towels and the double washer/dryer were incredibly convenient. The house itself felt really comfortable, with lovely natural light. And the backyard? Forget about it! Pool time, jacuzzi soaks, golf and pickleball matches – we were out there constantly. Honestly, it was exactly what we were hoping for and more.

Just got back from a 5 day stay at Desert Azul and it was great! Property is huge. We played pickle ball, ping pong and bags every morning, then spent early afternoon basking and playing in the very warm pool water. Home is well equipped and the beds are all firm but comfortable. Very few steps on the property so even my 89 year old Mother could easily navigate her way around the property. Great place to stay with a big group.

This is a beautiful spacious home in a nice neighborhood that met our every need and more. Stay with Style was wonderful and easy to work with.

The pictures of this property do not do it justice. The outdoor space was amazing. Pool was so inviting. The backyard was completely private. We were a small group of 7 but the house was stocked to host a very large group. Our chef was impressed with how the kitchen was stocked. The property manager was always available and responsive.

What a great location near to Kierland Commons and TPC Golf. The home was well stocked and very clean. The backyard area was our favorite and spent time in and out of the pool. Can't wait to comeback.

Excellent vacation rental
